I love to talk shop with some of my favorite people. I'm a big fan of simple living, but it's not just about getting rid of your stuff—it’s about living holistically with your life’s purpose. On the show, I talk with other people about what that looks like for them. Whatever their passion, that's what's on tap: food, travel, writing, books, parenting, work, fashion, and everything in between. Head here!

Upstream Field Guide is a self-guided course to help you discover what it looks like in your life to simplify, discover your purpose and passions, and take the risks necessary to live according to that purpose—to live upstream. Head here to check it out.

If you’re in the States, I hope you’ve had a restful Thanksgiving week. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed not spending much time online and reading a really big book almost cover to cover. There’s something so peace-giving about shutting down the pixels and getting back to good old paper for a few days, isn’t there?

But guess what I’m getting psyched about? Tomorrow kicks off our annual Home for the Holidays week here at SLM! Monday through Friday, all five channels are hosting three giveaways, a charity spotlight, and a fun Christmas Q&A party. It’ll be a lot of fun—and I’ll see you there!

LOVED the family tablecloth idea. I need to get a plain tablecloth in time for Christmas this year since we’ll be sharing a large cabin with all of my husband’s family. It’ll be great to document everyone being together.
